Coping with sciatica? any possible remedies for dealing with sciatica?

Need Diagnosis: You really require a real diagnosis, what is the underlying cause for your pain. This will need a physical exam and possibly a MRI to see if you have a disc herniation versus other potential spinal issues. Once that is known then there are many potential treatments including: medication such as gabapentin, epidural steroid injections, physical therapy

Conservative care: Lumbar radiculopathy, or sciatica, can initially be treated with exercise and stretches as part of a physical therapy regimen. If your symptoms persist, you may be a candidate for lumbar epidural steroid injections to decrease the inflammation around exiting nerve roots. Any associated numbness, weakness, or incontinence merits urgent medical evaluation.

Core Exercises: Typically core strengthening exercises are the best to help relieve pressure and forces in the spine. I would try and google some or look them up on youtube to see descriptions. If you can do them yourself, wonderful otherwise ask your doctor to get a referral to a good physical therapist for further assistance. Alternatively there are steroidal injections and stem cell therapies available.
